Everton are reportedly readying a big-money move for Celtic star Kieran Tierney.
The Toffees are yet to make a single signing this summer but according to a report from the Telegraph, they are preparing a bid worth £25 million as they look to seal a deal for Tierney.
Leighton Baines is approaching the twilight years of his playing career and with Marco Silva planning for the future at Goodison Park, it’s believed that a new left-back is wanted this summer.
Tierney, who played a big part in Celtic’s historic double-treble in the last two seasons, has established himself as one of the most promising young left-backs in the world, evidently piquing the interest of Everton.
The 21-year-old has boasted immense versatility for both Celtic and his native Scotland, as he is able to operate at either left-back or right-back, along with in central defence if necessary.
Tierney will not be sold cheaply by Celtic but if an offer of £25m does indeed come in, it could be hard for Brendan Rodgers’ side to turn down.
